Efficient gas recovery and separation in a hydrate-based system was investigated for a model gaseous mixture of R22 and nitrogen. The formed hydrate settled in the recovery vessel; excess water was recycled and the hydrate was subsequently decomposed by releasing pressure from the vessel. The gas uptake rate of R22 gas from the vapor phase and the gas recovery rate from the hydrate were determined from hydrate formation and decomposition, respectively. The gas recovery rate of R22 gas gradually increased with time. On the contrary, the nitrogen gas recovery rate was a maximum in the initial stage of hydrate decomposition. A high separation factor (S.F.) was achieved by first separating the N-2-rich gas generated during initial hydrate decomposition. An efficient hydrate-based gas separation and recovery process is proposed. (C) 2014 The Institution of Chemical Engineers. Published by Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
